A race for Owen
About a year and a half ago Owen Cenal died of a heart attack while paddling with his team in a canoe race from the island of Moloka'i to O'ahu, a race that takes over 5 hours to complete. Mahalo nui to the Beach Boys for hosting this event in memory of a talented paddler, canoe paddle maker, coach, and a friend to many. http://starbulletin.com/2005/10/10/sports/story05.html
It is a wonderful idea - a great honour for Owen and surely a big help for his family - they must be very proud to have so many people remembering him and finishing a race in his name. Congratulations for your bronze medal!!!

A very nice tribute indeed. There is so much to see in this photo in way of colour, activities, and SUN!
It's great to see so many people coming together to pay tribute to one man, and in such a fitting and positive way.
Were you participating ?
Yes =) we got a crew of six together the night before and did the race =)
We finished in a very surprising top 3 too =P
A brilliant shot to add to the remarkable tribute. And congratulations on the race!
Interesting shot with soo many different elements to look at.

This is a great photo - a tribute in and of itself to Mr. Cenal.
Good job on your top three finish as well!
